She survived seventeen years of being unwanted. She built a life from nothing. She was finally free. Then they found her.
Fiorella Chiara Matthews was the only human born into a werewolf family - no wolf, no shift, no place at the table. Abused, neglected, and discarded by the very pack that should have protected her, she escaped at twenty and never looked back.
Florence became her home. Silence became her armour. Survival became her identity.
But the Blood Moon Pack has been dying without her.
Her brothers are hollow with guilt. Her parents pray every night for one more chance. And Leonardo Russo - her fated mate, the Alpha who stayed silent while she suffered - hasn't slept a full night in three years.
When Duncan finally brings her home, Fiorella makes one thing clear : she does not forgive easily. She does not trust freely. And she will not pretend that love, suddenly offered, erases years of love withheld.
But something is happening to her.
Flowers bloom where she walks. Wounds heal under her hands. And a woman with white hair and ancient eyes keeps appearing at the waterfall - whispering things that make no sense, and feel completely true.
Fiorella was never just human. She was never less than them. She was always something the world wasn't ready for.
And someone very dangerous has just figured that out.
